Incorporating YETC Resources Into My Classroom.

Today we went the the YETC computer lab and learned about open source software that is available for free on the internet. One application he showed us called Stellarium. I would enjoy using this in my classroom because I can pick a time of day and look at the stars with my students. It has all sorts of gadgets that would help my students understand rotations and constellations. www.storylineonline.net would be very useful to help engage my students in reading books. It had all sorts of books that had a storyteller to read them. One very useful website, pioneer-library.org, has all sorts of videos available to teachers. I'm thinking this website would be useful in teaching about history and science. The best part is all these applications he showed us are free!
